Title:
  mountall hangs when fstab contains aufs entries

Status in “mountall” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,

  for a webdav application I need apache with dav and a aufs mounted
  directory. Therefore I have an entry

  none /var/www/dav/Public aufs
  br:/mnt/local/archiv/Public_dav:/mnt/local/archiv/Public 0 0

  in my fstab, which works when using mount from the command line. But
  it keeps the system from booting, not even the Singe-Use-Mode shell is
  available anymore. System hangs within mountall. The last thing to be
  seen is that mountall reports that mounting this entry fails.

  I guess that at this time the other partitions are not yet mounted and
  thus the directories needed for this to work do not yet exist.

  So mountall is a) not able to mount regular and correct entries in
  fstab   and b) completely locks the machine even from admin access if
  so.

  
  Even worse, that damned ubuntu startup system does not allow to add local scripts to be run between mounting regular disks and starting an apache. Really broken. 

  regards
